Chasing Meteors.
From the Winsted Comm Herald

From the WinSted Gonna Herald
We caution our readers to put no reliance in
stories about meteors which come very near
those who were startled by them We We're
fooled once, about thirty years ago, by one OF
these brilliant wanderers in space. 1t passed
right over the Litchfield fair grounds, appar-
emily, and struck the earth over on Chestnut
Hill We were so fully convinced that it buried
itself in Litchiied soil that we cogitated upon
the ACCESSIBILITY of going over to unearth the
thing.
"Pshaw, joe" said the good old father when
we reported the matter on our arrival home Iii
was more likely hundreds of miles away" 1T
can't be- father" we replied; III. B. Graves saw
it and said he should think it passed over John
H. Iubbards house, or at least not farther
down than the fair grounds. Why, father, we
heard il :"
The next days New York papers weakened
our faith in our ability to calculate on meteoric
distance. The same brilliant sphere was re-
ported by telegraph as having been seen by
people in Kentucky, and a few days later a
westward bound transatlantic steamer reported
having seen it 800 miles out at sea.

The ladies have doubtless read much of
the handsome diamond necklace of Mrs.
Cleveland. and while we wouldn't for a
moment insinuate that any lady envies its
popular poSsessor, still many would take
pleasure IN at least looking at it. A coun-
terpart of this glorious string of gems, with
its lovely and dazzling pendant, can be in
spectid in the jewelry establishment of Mr..
NJ Sterpberg, l57 Broughton street, who
viii take pleasure in exhibiting its charms
to every lady who will honor him with a
visit. The necklace in question is TO be
ratified. and in the interval it can be seen
and Inspected as above. Besides the neck
lace, there are still many articles in Mr..
Sternberg's treasure house that are worthy
of visit, and the proprietor and his atten-
tive statesmen will take especial pains to
show their immense stock Of Jewelry, Dia-
monds, Silverware, Art Objects, Bronzes,
etc. There is no obligation TO buy ioIt0t-
erer, and Mr.. Sternberg will be equally
happy to show through those who do not
wish to buy as those who do Everybody
should see the Diamond Necklace, as it is
certainly a superb collection of brilliant
gems. Our holiday display is now arranged
tor inspection. Respectfully,

match was opposed by the parents of the
bride, and it was solemnized without their
knowledge or consent. Mrs. Taylor was

fl lure and handsome face. Her manners
Were pleasant ard attractive. Their union

mutual infatuation. Since their marriage
they have been living with Mr.. Jones.

Fourth streets, and to all appearances were
happy i'll each others love. Tuesday night
after supper Mr.. Taylor left his wife at her
fathers, saying he would return in few
hours. Shortly past 10 O'Clock Mrs. Taylor
took large dose of morphine. About IL
o'clock Taylor returned home. When he
arose yesterday morning and went ont on
the streets she was stu sleeping. He re-
turned later, ate breakfast and again left
the house, when he was sent for by Mrs
Jones to come and arouse his wife.

This he did and Mrs. Taylor told her hus-
Gibson was sent for and administered to
her, and she would have recovered but she
managed in some way to take another dose,
which threw her into deep Stupor. Strenu-
Gus efforts were made to keep her awake
and her husband walked her about for
hours Her condition grew worse Mrs
Jones sent for DR.. j. G. johnson. the regular
family physician, and he in turn sent for
Or. Mediation to come and assist i'll apply
ing the battery and thus assist in keeping
up respiration. All that mortal aid could
do was done but to no purpose. No cause
is assigned for the rash deed. She left the
following letter for her husband
DEAR BuBBER: will say few words to you
as am going. Darling love you. and know
you love me, but you are not doing me right ut
all, and you know it. But that's all right,
darling. love you well enough to die for YOU,
and have some little requests to make before

another is to never go around any other young
lady, and for my sake and Gods sake, never,

A few short weeks ago that young girl
was the personification of health, vigor and
beauty. The blush upon her cheeks rivalled
that of the rose; her step was light and
buoyant, her every movement was a revela-
ton of perfect physical health. Yet now
she is pallid and haggard, and her super
abundant vitality has given place to
strange dulneSs and lassitude. What has
caused this changer Functional irregu-
larities, which can be cured by DR.. Pierce's
